About Aura

Aura intends to be the Great Read source for speculative fiction. We
will happily snap up your dark visions of fantastic genius and stellar
spires of art...on one condition: We must believe it will delight
someone who is tired, had a rough day at work, and who hungers for a
fun, memorable read. Why? Because, frankly, we suspect most of our
readers are tired, had rough days, and are so hungry for a great read
they're starving-- for all the flavors of speculative fiction, from
creep-you-out horror, to Neo-Silver-Age, to the most mecha-mad Steampunk
rhapsodies. Fun. Fast. Adventurous.

We are interested in new material and debut authors: we dream you
will send us novels, novellas, and short stories to satisfy this
generation, and get the incoming YA generation hooked on SF. If you are a
pro with a backlist, and you own your rights, we are also very
interested in both new works and reprints. Aura can serve as a happy
medium between finding an Old Media Publisher, and self-publishing. We
provide a way of keeping your writing available, generating interest
and income. Your works will get new artwork, new proofing and editing
(if you wish) and get to an audience of new spec fic fans. Why do all
the work yourself when we will do it for you?
